When you're at the Texas Renaissance Festival, it's good to be the king.

The fest is the largest renaissance festival in the country, with over half a million visitors every year. Having run every year since 1974, this fest has become legendary. We sat down with the king of the fest, (who has reigned for more than 20 years) about what makes the festival so special and what he's learned after ruling for so long.
